Tropic Pops (Pineapple, Banana, Coconut)

To celebrate the still warm weather I wanted to share a Popsicle recipe.  I adapted this recipe from a book called Fun Stuff- Frozen Pops. I modified it a little bit by adding some shredded coconut and reducing the number of bananas and this recipe is what I came up with.  These are really fresh and, as the name suggests, tropical.  

Ingredients:
1 banana
1 can of coconut milk
1/2 pineapple
2 tbsp sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla
1/8 tsp ground nutmeg
1/4 cup shredded sweetened coconut
8 (5oz) Popsicle molds or plastic/paper cups 

Method:

1. Combine everything but the shredded coconuts, and blend in a blender until smooth.
2. Stir in the shredded coconut by spoon (i.e. don’t blend it in with the blender).
3. Pour the mixture into Popsicle molds or into small paper cups and cover and freeze. 

note: if you’re using cups then cover them with tinfoil and freeze for 2 hours before inserting the Popsicle sticks.
